If you’re dreaming about rare pheasants, colorful rosefinches, and maybe even spotting a Red Panda in the wild, Sichuan birding tours should absolutely be on your radar. But many first - time visitors don’t realize right away that a lot of the best birding spots in Sichuan sit at seriously high elevations.
We’re talking 3,000 to 4,000 meters (that’s around 10,000 - 13,000 feet). For comparison, that’s higher than most ski resorts in Colorado.
